The National Innovation Games is a series of innovation challenges to be held in every state and territory across the country in an effort to bring together over 4,500 people including: emerging talent and academics from universities and TAFEs; small and medium businesses; corporations and their employees; academics; and the Australian Government to solve some of the greatest challenges facing Australia and kick start a national inclusive innovation culture.
After the successful launch of the National Innovation Games with the Australian Government and the Council of Small Business Organisations of Australia last year, we are very excited to announce our next Challenge supporting regional Victoria with the support of EnergyAustralia!
Following the Paddl Games model by Paddl Co., these are unique experiences designed to create a real workplace experience for emerging talent and facilitate innovation projects for businesses while providing amazing outcomes for existing and potential employees. Together, 150 participants take on an Innovation Challenge to impact the growth, success and employment opportunities of businesses in Australia.
The National Innovation Games addresses major topics - the Challenge topic selected for regional Victoria is “Business resilience: optimising your essential services during times of crisis”. This is a critical issue facing the whole of Australia.
The Challenge will generate professional experience, IP and employment opportunities.
